the part of Gods good Lieutenantsin thefe their Regions , they haue
laide a foundation of all cheir Statutes & decrees,the word & euerlafting

their great forefight to make good Lawes , butalfotheir fpeciall care to
notifie the fame,that ignorance might not excufe offenders,nor want of
notice,lead awry fuch as are willing toliue in order.But becaufe the Go-
uernours of this {tate, from time to time carefull to provide fuch Lawes,
as were molt commodious for the weale publique,haue bin enforced to

accidents and circumftances wherunto our humane nature is ſubiect, by
that neceffarie meanes our {tatute Lawes are growen to be many , fome
much differing and fome meere contrary and repugnantto others: For
